VANCOUVER, WA – Hamilton Zanze, a leading San Francisco-based multifamily real estate investment firm, announced it has sponsored the purchase of Arnada Pointe, a 200-home garden-style apartment community in Vancouver, Wash.
Mission Rock Residential, an affiliate of Hamilton Zanze, has assumed management of the property, which is situated 11 miles north of Portland, Ore., on the north bank of the Columbia River. The river treads the Washington and Oregon state lines and is the largest in the Pacific Northwest.
“We are excited about the sponsored acquisition of Arnada Pointe, as it represents an opportunity to acquire an asset at a significant discount to replacement costs with long-term upside potential,” said David Nelson, president and chief investment officer at Hamilton Zanze. “Vancouver has been the fastest-growing city in the Pacific Northwest, with strong population growth and apartment demand. We believe Arnada Pointe is well-positioned to capture future rent growth as supply slows down over the next 12 to 18 months.”
Located at 4820 Hazel Dell Avenue, Arnada Pointe was built in 2005 and offers one-, two- and three-bedroom apartment homes. Homes range in size from 700 to 1,188 square feet and include in-home washers and dryers, spacious closets, vinyl flooring and private patios or balconies. Common-area amenities at the pet-friendly community include a resident clubhouse, outdoor swimming pool, playground, barbecue/picnic areas and a 24-hour fitness center.
Located just west of key thoroughfare Interstate 5 and adjacent to a local bus line, Arnada Pointe enables residents to easily connect to the thriving employment markets of Fruit Valley and the greater Portland area. Residents are also within a quick commute to Downtown Vancouver and its variety of dining, retail and entertainment options. Additionally, the community is surrounded by an array of recreational outlets, including Vancouver Lake, Leverich Park and Kiggins Bowl.

BURLESON, TX – Elevate Commercial Investment Group announced the acquisition of Camden Crossings, a premier 144-unit multifamily community located just 15 minutes south of Fort Worth in Burleson, Texas. This strategic acquisition aligns with Elevate’s commitment to providing high-quality, cash-flowing real estate opportunities while delivering strong, risk-adjusted returns to investors.
Built in 2023, Camden Crossings is a Class A garden-style apartment community featuring modern amenities such as a resort-style swimming pool, a pickleball court, a dog park, and stylish unit finishes including granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and private balconies. The property benefits from a prime location in Burleson, a rapidly growing submarket with strong demographics, highly rated schools, and easy access to major employment hubs in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
This acquisition represents a compelling investment opportunity, with Elevate purchasing the asset at a highly favorable cost basis of $160,000 per unit and purchasing from the original developer. The property benefits from an innovative financing structure.
“Our acquisition of Camden Crossings underscores our disciplined approach to identifying high-quality assets with strong upside potential,” said Jorge Abreu, Co-Founder and CEO of Elevate Commercial Investment Group. “With a stabilized cap rate of 7.6% and projected investor returns exceeding 17% IRR, we believe this asset will generate long-term value for our investors while enhancing the residential experience in Burleson. Although it was tempting to do more deals in 2024 we stayed disciplined and positioned ourselves and our investors for a strong 2025 and beyond.”
The five-year business plan for Camden Crossings focuses on optimizing operational efficiencies through Elevate’s vertically integrated management platform. Elevate’s in-house construction and property management teams will work to streamline expenses, drive rent growth, and maximize NOI to ensure sustained asset appreciation.

The property’s Northwest Dallas location has experienced rapid growth, experiencing a 513% increase in population since 2010.
